Casa Goetsch-Winckler

La Casa Goetsch – Winckler (también conocida como Casa Winkler - Goetsch) fue diseñada por Frank Lloyd Wright, construida en 1940, y está ubicada en el 2410 de Hulett Rd, Okemos, Míchigan. La casa es un ejemplo del estilo arquitectónico usoniano de Wright, y está considerada como una de las más elegantes.​ Historia En la década de 1930, ocho profesores de la Universidad Estatal de Míchigan, en la vecina East Lansing, formaron una cooperativa y compraron un terreno de cuarenta acres​ en Okemos.​ Dos de ellos, Alma Goetsch y Kathrine Winckler (o Winkler), se acercaron a Wright para pedirle que diseñara una comunidad para ellos.​ El concepto de Wright, derivado del plan de la ciudad de Broadacre, se conocería como Usonia I.​ La comunidad consistiría en siete casas y una casita de cuidadores que rodeaban una granja, huerto y estanque de peces comunes.​ El acceso a las casas era por un camino en forma de U alrededor de la granja, con cada casa al final de un largo camino y cada una con un jardín privado.​ Aunque el diseño de cada casa variaba, sí compartían características comunes, como techos planos, líneas horizontales acentuadas y masas simples.​ Debido a la falta de financiamiento, el proyecto colapsó y solo la Casa Goetsch-Winckler se construyó​ pero en un sitio diferente.​ Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Wright diseñó casas por separado para varios otros miembros de la cooperativa, aunque el único diseño construido fue el de Erling P. Brauner,​ también en Okemos, a menos de una milla y media de la Goetsch – Winckler House.​ Diseño Al ser una de las casas más antiguas de Wright en estilo usoniano,​ la casa es un "Usoniana en línea", literalmente una casa construida en línea recta.​ La cochera, la sala, el comedor, la cocina y los dormitorios forman espacios rectangulares que se deslizan uno sobre el otro.​ La sala de estar ocupa la mayor parte de la casa, con una chimenea en un extremo frente a un área de trabajo.​ En el extremo opuesto, dos dormitorios, separados por un baño, se abren a una galería.​ El espacio de trabajo ejemplifica el interior usoniano, con sus ventanas de almacén que complementan un banco de ventanas de longitud completa en la pared adyacente.​ A pesar de su pequeño tamaño, la casa parece grande debido a los muebles y estantes incorporados.​ Los elementos integrados incluyen la mesa del comedor, un asiento junto a la chimenea, un bar, un escritorio y una estantería en el área de trabajo, así como numerosos espacios de almacenamiento.​ Véase también Anexo:Obras de Frank Lloyd Wright Referencias Enlaces externos Casa Goetsch-Winckler - PeterBeers.net Galería

Governor's Mansion (Marshall, Michigan)

The Governor's Mansion at 621 S. Marshall Ave. in Marshall, Michigan is a historic house built in 1839 with elements of Greek Revival architecture. It is also known as Governor's Mansion Museum. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. In 2017, the house is a museum owned and operated by the Mary Marshall Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution. History In 1839, Marshall citizen James Wright Gordon, recently elected to the state senate, began agitating for Marshall to be designated as the state capital. In expectation, Gordon purchased land across from where the Capitol was proposed to be built and constructed this house. It has been referred to as the "Governor's Mansion" since its construction. Gordon became lieutenant governor, and then acting governor of Michigan in 1841. However, Lansing was chosen as the new state capital in 1847, dashing Marshall's hopes. Gordon was later appointed to the consular service in South America by Zachary Taylor, and died there in 1853. Gordon's widow owned of the house until 1882, when it was purchased by Mrs. Flory Palmer, a local resident. She and her daughter, Bertha Palmer Brady, lived in the house for many years. In 1967, the Brady heirs donated the property to the local Mary Marshall Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. The chapter converted the house into their meeting hall and as a museum. Description The "Governor's Mansion" in Marshall is a two-story white frame Greek Revival building built in a side-hall plan. It has a single-story rear addition. The main section of the house has clapboard siding on the sides and horizontal plank siding on the front. In the front is a wide Doric portico with a Greek entablature above. Under the portico are two vertically elongated sash windows, and a front entrance framed by pilasters decorated with carved acanthus leaves. A dentiled cornice runs across the main portion of the house.

Grand Army of the Republic Building (Detroit)

The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) Building is a historic building in downtown Detroit, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. History The GAR Building was designed by architect Julius Hess, and constructed at 1942 West Grand River and Cass as an appropriate structure for meetings and other GAR related activities. The cost was split between the Grand Army of the Republic (who paid $6,000 of the cost) and the city of Detroit (who paid the remainder of the $44,000 total cost). Construction commenced in 1897 on the five-story building. This Richardsonian Romanesque-designed building lies on a small, triangular lot on the northwest side of downtown Detroit. Originally built for the Grand Army of the Republic members in Detroit, the building included 13 shops and a bank on the ground floor, office space on the second and third floors, and a small auditorium on the fourth floor. As GAR membership dwindled through the beginning part of the 20th century, they were unable to maintain the structure and, by 1934, vacated the building and gave ownership to the city. The GAR Memorial Association, a women's group, used it until 1973. The GAR building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 13, 1986. More recently the city attempted to sell the building, but a coalition including the Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War and the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War brought suit against the city of Detroit to block sale of the building, claiming that a clause in the 1898 deed stated that city must preserve the building as a memorial to Civil War veterans. Redevelopment In 2007, it was reported that the city of Detroit had sold the GAR Building to Olympia Development, an arm of Ilitch Holdings, Inc. for a price of $220,500. Olympia Development expected to renovate the building at a cost of $2 million, but the purchase was later rescinded after they did nothing with the building. In 2011, the property was then sold to Mindfield USA, a Detroit-based media company, for $220,000. The firm planned to renovate the building for its headquarters. Renovation began immediately after purchase, and Mindfield planned to occupy the top two floors of the structure, lease the ground floor for retail and a restaurant and dedicate a memorial to Civil War Veterans with renovation progress documented on a blog page. The Republic Tavern opened in February 2015 and was named on OpenTable's Top 100 Best Restaurants For Foodies In America in September 2015 and listed on OpenTable's 100 Hottest Restaurants in America in March 2016. The Parks and Rec Diner later opened in an adjacent space, but both restaurants closed after the COVID-19 pandemic. In February 2023, the building was sold to Barbat Holdings of West Bloomfield, Michigan, for an undisclosed price.

Grand Haven State Park

Grand Haven State Park is a public recreation area on the shores Lake Michigan on the south side of the mouth of the Grand River and harbor in Grand Haven, Michigan. The state park encompasses 48 acres (19 ha) consisting entirely of beach sand. It features camping and beach activities along with scenic views of the Grand Haven South Pierhead Entrance Light and Grand Haven South Pierhead Inner Light. Features The park is bordered by Lake Michigan to the west, the Grand River on the north, and City Beach to the south. A large pier next to the state park supports the harbor's entrance light and inner lighthouse (pictured at right). The pier connects to a boardwalk that extends approximately one mile upstream toward the commercial district of Grand Haven. The beach and state park were created by the interruption of the littoral drift of sand along the coast caused by the navigation structure which was installed to protect the entrance to the harbor. History The park was among the 13 parks created in 1920 after the Michigan State Parks Commission was established in 1919. The park (popularly called "The Oval") was originally a 35-acre public beach that had been purchased by the city for $1,000. In 1920, the twenty-two acres closest to the pier were deeded from the city to the state for $1.00 for use as a state park, with the acreage to the south retained as City Beach. Activities and amenities In addition to swimming and other beach activities, the park offers a 174-site campground, rental house, fishing pier, picnicking area, and playground.
